This is Bodega Los Alijbes's award-winning red blend made of Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Tempranillo, and aged for 6 months in seasoned French and American oak. The deep purple wine opens with an enticing aroma of spices, underbrush, lavender, in addition to notes of black cherry and blackberry. On the palate, this full-bodied red wine is dense, rich in volume with excellent extraction and a long, dry finish. This Spanish red blend is rated 90 points by Robert Parker and is a true expression of an outstanding red wine.
